The Authoritative New Beethoven Interpretation From Manfred Honeck and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, In Superb Audiophile Sound
Conductor Manfred Honeck writes in his fascinating and thorough music notes: “A recording of Beethoven is always a great occasion and event. The marrying of the music’s historic interpretation with the brilliance of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s playing and the fantastic technique of Soundmirror have made this recording, comprised of three live concerts from December 2014, possible. It has been a joy to look deeply into that which Beethoven has composed, while also discovering the sense and content of the music and thus the reason why it has been written. For me, this is always the most beautiful part of the creative process.”
This release is the fourth in the highly acclaimed Pittsburgh Live!series of multi-channel hybrid SACD releases on the FRESH! series from Reference Recordings. Each, including the newest Bruckner 4(FR-713SACD) has received dozens of critical accolades. Dvořák/Janáček(FR-710SACD), garnered a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Orchestral Performance.
